NIE and IrCOMM

NIE and IrCOMM

Looks like we’re one step closer to getting NIE to connect via IrDA. A little testing showed that my previous assumptions on how to disguise the IrCOMM implementation as a serial chip are true. The only major showstopper might be that the Newton’s communication system does not like it to have its ears stiched to… you know what! Then, the only way out would be to port a complete IrDA stack and sign into the next lunatic asylum. But for Bluetooth, this might be a whole different story and well worth it.
